Last Friday, my friend Deborah asked me if I would like to learn how to make tofu. I couldn't think of any good reason not to be interested in, so I said: "Yes". So the next day I met her and other three nice people and went to Hodo Soy Beanery in Oakland, I enjoyed the trip. And I learned a lot from the trip. The following is what I learned.
Tofu has a history of 2,000 years. Although the word "tofu" is from Japanese, the food may come from China. There are two main kinds of tofu: soft tofu (软豆腐) and firm tofu (硬豆腐). In some parts of Asia (亚洲), people use tofu as a kind of meat.
Douhua is one kind of soft tofu. It is a popular breakfast food in China. Because it is very soft, people can't eat it with chopsticks, but with a spoon. People often eat it as a dessert (甜点) and often add spring onions and sauce (酱油) to it. In Malaysia people usually eat douhua with white or dark sugar water.
Kids have lots of fun indoor activities nowadays. Three parents and educators are here to share how they encourage children to spend more time outside and connect with nature.
Susie experienced educator | To get kids off screen, I advise parents disconnect too. My students have come to enjoy looking out for birds. They also find joy in using binoculars （双筒望远镜） for birdwatching. One of my students is now known as the local 12-year-old birdwatcher in the community. He's now a better birdwatcher than I am! |
outdoor club volunteer | During a fishing trip with 30 kids aged 10 to 16, I had to get creative to keep them active. So, I came up with an idea: whoever catches a fish gets a gift. Although no one caught a fish, the kids loved it. Next month, we're going to have a boat racing on a nearby river. The key is to create an interesting space and give kids a reason to join in. |
Linda English teacher | When teaching English as a second language, I planned an outdoor math lesson: how to find the size of a garden bed （园圃）. But my students didn't want to do it because of the insects （昆虫） and the hot weather, I then suggested growing something they could eat to make them more interested in the garden. This experience changed my mindset （观念） from "I'm taking them outside" to "We're going outside together". |

▅ "Very good! I would go back again." I came here to have my birthday today. The coffee and cakes were delicious and it was relaxing to stay here. I like this restaurant and I will be back again. ★★★★★Jenny |
▅ "Completely overrated (评价过高)." We saw very good comments of this restaurant, but I think the service was terrible. We waited for 30 minutes before anyone even noticed us. We ordered noodles, but they were overcooked. I was angry here! ☆☆☆☆★Frank |
▅ "Visited twice in three days!" We had lovely food there for the first time. The fish was very fresh and it had delicious salad. The second time we went there, the waiters were friendly but left us alone for two hours！But it is near my home and easy to get to. ☆☆★★★Eric |
▅ "A nice place to meet friends." This is a good restaurant and it also serves us well, though it's a little expensive. I usually go there just for a drink. It is a place to have a drink, but it might be better to eat somewhere else. ☆★★★★Olivia |
